The Wrong Blind Date

Don't they get tired of using the basic story with minor changes and different actors, but still one single formula? Basically this is another version of Unstable (2012) and.the Wrong Roommate (2016), with Ashley. Scott in the former and Jessica Morris in the latter. And Meredith was definitely wrongfully cast in this one. She is more Stepford wife-zy type!

Having first read the reviews before watching this film on afternoon tv, and expecting to get fed up with it and turn it off, I was surprised how much better it turned out to be after the poor reviews it had been given. I thought the acting was reasonable and found the story line kept me interested as to what was going to happen next without me becoming bored. Not having watched any of the similar tv film programmes mentioned in the previous reviews probably made it more interesting as I did not know what the outcome was going to be. I would class it as a middle of the road afternoon film to watch if you have nothing better to do.

I seldom review films but this one was dire. The only decent actress out of them all was the daughter Sophia Masson. Vivian Fox was just passable but the rest , Meredith Thomas, Rainer Dawn, Matthew Pohlkamp, Clark Moore, and Leslie Kay were ridiculous. I have no idea how they get acting jobs. Absolute rubbish actors/actresses.

This was the usual formulaic LMN movie but as per usual, had an attractive cast and somewhat interesting storyline.

And, as per usual this is set in the "Lifetime Universe" where things just don't make a whole lotta sense, like...

1. Utter screwballs getting on the internet and shafting the innocents who get involved with them....

2. Adult BUSINESS PEOPLE acting like High School students who don't know their "you know what" from a hole in the ground....

3. COLLEGE STUDENTS possessing wisdom of the ages and counselling their parents....?

I must admit that the casting was realistic and the mother and daughter appeared as such and not as sisters.

Fun watch....

7/10.

Ms. Vivica to the rescue again! This time she's a therapist trying to help a woman move past her pending divorce and start dating again! Trouble is she picks the wrong blind date! Better script than some of the "wrong" movie but Vivica always makes them entertaining! Recommended for one watch!
